"The regulations at each stadium are a matter for the
relevant stadium management authorities, however, the scale of Old
Trafford and profile of Manchester United mean that the risk at this
venue is unique," it adds.

A spokesman for the club told the BBC it had made the move after receiving "advice", but would not say from whom this had come.

He added the action was unrelated to concerns about fans
using tablets to record video of matches, potentially blocking the view
of others, as had been reported elsewhere.

A spokesman for the Premier League said: "This is not something we are responsible for or involved in." The Football Association was unable to provide comment at this time.

The government announced in July that passengers flying to
the US or elsewhere who passed through UK airports needed to show that
devices carried in their hand luggage were charged and could be powered
on. The move followed a warning that US officials had become aware of a
"credible" unnamed terrorist threat.
